AUSTIN, Texas — Law enforcement officials, including local police and FBI agents, are at the scene of a residence in Pflugerville tied to the suspect in the mass shooting that happened in Austin early Sunday morning.
Two people were killed and at least 14 others were injured after a shooting early Sunday morning in downtown Austin, authorities said.
Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis said at a news conference Sunday morning that the suspect, who has not yet been identified by law enforcement officials, was driving a large SUV, circled the block several times before stopping, turning on the SUV’s hazard lights and firing a handgun.Â
Police said he then parked near Wood Street, got out and continued shooting with a pistol and later a rifle as he walked east on Sixth Street. Officers who were stationed nearby at the time opened fire on the shooter, killing him.
Davis said the suspect never entered Buford’s bar but fired shots from outside the building. She said evidence from the SUV and nearby businesses is still being processed and confirmed that only two weapons — a pistol and a rifle — were recovered.Â
Fourteen patients were located at the scene and taken to nearby hospitals, and two victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Three of those hospitalized remain in critical condition.
At least four of the 14 patients have been released from local hospitals, according to St. David’s HealthCare.
